    Yeah. As someone running a NAS/Jellyfin server of a SBC/USB SSD I would love to pick up an x86 sffpc too properly put everything inside but idle power and quiet aren’t easily beat.

    Software support olinwouldnt really agree since x86 gives a lot more options than ARM

      My RPi 3b pulls 5W, while my thin clients draw about 6-7W on idle, one of them doesn’t even have a fan, the other one could easily be modded to lose the fan.
